Rua-Evans, Pellegrino-Tibau Slated For UFC 129 In New Jersey

The planned Mauricio Rua-Rashad Evans UFC Light Heavyweight Title fight originally planned for UFC 128 has now been pushed back to UFC 129 in New Jersey. Also in the works is Kurt Pellegrino vs. Gleison (Graison) Tibau. 129 is expected to take place on March 19 in New Jersey, but also could become UFC 128 if the planned 3/12 event in the United Arab Emirates falls through. 129 could also get the planned Tito Ortiz-Antonio Rogerio Nogueira fight scheduled for 128.
